There are many dry wines at 12.5% ABV or less. Alcohol level after complete fermentation depends on sugar level in the grapes. Sparkling wines are often made from grapes harvested before they're fully ripe, for about 12% ABV even when fermented completely dry. And some strong wines can be sweet, because the grapes had so much sugar that the yeast couldn't ferment it all.
